The Consul General at Casablanca (Goold) to the Secretary of State
[Received 4:20 p.m.]
183. I am reliably informed of a conversation between General Weygand and Monsieur Mareais of the Intelligence Service at Rabat. The General stated that the activities of the said Monsieur must be carried on with the greatest discretion and secretiveness; that the Germans were most anxious to destroy it altogether, and that any manifestation of its activities here would bring on a German occupation. It was the business of Frenchmen to grit their teeth, prepare very quietly and await the opportunity that might come.
I understand that Monick, the new Secretary General will proceed to Vichy in a few days for information and instructions.
Repeated by telegraph to the Legation and Vichy.
